Package: xdg-utils
Version: 1.1.0~rc1-1
Severity: minor
I use Openbox on Debian Sid with mostly GTK/Gnome Apps and more specifically
Nautilus is what I will refer to in this report. I do not use a login manager
and start openbox from .xinitrc with "exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch
openbox-session" and have dbus, policykit and consolekit installed.
I had set "export DE=gnome" in my .bashrc but found that xdg-open was still
considering my DE to be "generic". Therefore, as one example file:/// url's
were opening within Chromium Web Browser when I clicked on "Show in Folder"
from a download from within Chromium. I wanted this to open in Nautilus
instead.
The function "detectDE" in the xdg-open script does not take into account that
the DE variable may already be set.
To get things working I replaced the line where "detectDE" is called with:
if [ x"$DE" = x"" ]; then
detectDE
fi
Which means the script does not assume the DE variable is unset, if it's not
set tries to detect it.
Then things worked as expected.
